The Independent National Electoral Commission has resumed
the Continuous Voter Registration nationwide, ahead of the 2023 elections.
In this piece, there are 10 things you need to
know about the CVR exercise:
1.CVR is open to all Nigerian citizens from 18 years
upwards, who are yet to register for their Permanent Voter’s Card. As long as
you are over 18 years old and is yet to register, the voter registration is for
you.
2.This exercise is also for those who have issues with their accreditation during the past elections, have issues with their PVC or their biometric details, want to change their addresses, retrieve damaged PVCs, and correct data issues.

2,673 centres across the country. At least 5,346 INEC staff have also been
deployed to enable the Commission to reach “all the nooks and crannies of the
country.”
4. The CVR will be carried out continuously for over a year
until the third quarter of 2022.
5.During the registration, the commission is targeting at
least 20 million new voters.
